In writing an effective grant application for funding consideration by the PLCB we offer the following recommendations:

Read the entire application carefully and make sure you understand what is required. If you have questions, call the PLCB at 717-772-1432.

Complete all necessary information and ensure accuracy prior to submission. Incomplete applications will not receive a score.

If your organization does not have the necessary state related funding numbers requested for the application, you will need to secure them prior to submission. Contact the PLCB at 717-772-1432 for assistance.

Be succinct in your grant narrative. Explain what you want to accomplish, how it will be accomplished, and the measureable outcomes you hope to achieve.
